In his latest perspective for CRN, Murali Thiagarajan, Field CTO & Global Practice Head, AI Led Intelligent Systems & Operations, explores why nearly one in three carve-outs fail to deliver the value they promise and why operational independence, not just deal closure, determines long-term success. The article examines how treating technology as a post-deal priority can delay value realization, increase operational risk, and extend reliance on Transitional Services Agreements (TSAs). It highlights the critical role of identity, security, infrastructure, and application readiness in enabling a seamless transition from legal separation to business independence.

Murali also shares practical considerations for organizations looking to modernize technology during a carve-out, reduce dependencies, and build resilient operations from Day One. The perspective offers actionable insights for business and technology leaders navigating complex separation and transformation initiatives.
